Hi madam, I would like to know a few further details as it would help get to a plan. So how long have you been having this pain? And where exactly is it left/right side? Do you have other symptoms such as cough, breathlessness, fever ,palpitations, sweating or wheezing? Any breast complaints? Are there any specific triggers and how exactly does the pain go away - Rest or meds? Can you exactly pinpoint where the pain is and does it pain when you touch the spot? Do you or anyone in your family have asthma? If you can let me know these we can try to get a clinical diagnosis which can be followed by some investigations if necessary
